Electrical Requirements
It is the customer’s responsibility to:
• contact a qualified electrical installer.
• assure that the electrical installation is
adequate and in conformance with the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-
latest edition or Canadian Electrical Code
C22.1-1998 and C22.2 No. 0-M91 (or
latest edition), and all local codes and
ordinances. A 115 volt, 60-Hz, 15 amp,
fused, electrical supply is required.
It is required that a separate circuit serving
only this appliance be provided. This
appliance is equipped with a power supply
cord having a 3-prong grounding plug. To
minimize possible shock hazard, the cord
must be plugged into a mating 3-prong,
grounding-type wall receptacle.
Do not use an extension cord.
If codes permit a separate grounding wire to
be used, it is recommended that a qualified
electrician determine that the grounding
path is adequate.
DO NOT ground to a gas pipe. Check with a
qualified electrician if you are not sure the
appliance is properly grounded. DO NOT
have a fuse in the neutral or grounding
circuit.
Anti-Tip Requirements
The anti-tip boards should be fastened into
position prior to moving the unit into the
opening.
Note: Additional mounting boards may be
required if the unit does not touch the back
wall of the enclosure. To prevent unit from
tipping forward, it must be secured in place
with a solid soffit or wood block.
